Overview

  • Bowers returned to practice Saturday as a limited participant after missing Thursday and Friday with a knee issue from Week 1.
  • The Raiders’ final injury report lists the tight end as questionable, and Carroll said Bowers looked “terrific” and is expected to play Monday night.
  • The star pass-catcher logged 103 yards on five receptions before exiting the win over the Patriots with a knee tweak.
  • Beat-writer observations earlier in the week noted a knee sleeve and no practice, fueling skepticism that his status could come down to game day.
  • If Bowers is unavailable, Michael Mayer is in line for the primary tight end role against the Chargers, with Las Vegas benefiting from an extra day of recovery before kickoff.
